and what to do about them? I've had Carly now for just under 2 weeks and while she's pregnant and gets a bit more leeway, I want to make sure that I start guiding her with proper behaviors now so she knows what I expect later. She's either a Himalayan or Himy mix but she's talkative and can be quite demanding. If I'm sitting at the computer she will come up and stare at me and meow. If I ignore the behavior she will start to stretch up and paw at me but today put a little claw into it. I told her no and didn't give the attention she wanted and she went on her way. Sometimes I think she's trying to tell me something because I didn't clean her box out last night (usually scoop 2x a day) and this morning it was pretty icky so I went and started scooping and she used it right away. She did this again later and I had no idea what she wanted. She had fresh water, food, clean litterbox, so I have no clue. She's not jumping up in my lap which I will allow but just staring and meowing. This might be pregnancy stuff, I don't know. I just don't want to start things now that I won't want later after her pregnancy is over.
